A gunman who unleashed death in a Munich mall screamed hatred just before he opened fire, yelling out, “I’m German,” and then “f— foreigners” just before he began shooting, according to witnesses.

The shooting “looks like a terror attack,” police said. Germany’s Muencher Abendzeitung reported that up to 15 people were killed. Other accounts said six were dead and 10 wounded.

As dark fell on the city, police were hunting for who they believed were three gunmen who opened fire in the Munich Olympia Shopping Center at around 6 p.m. Munich time. Police said other reports of shootings in the city appear linked to the same group of gunmen.

“We currently do not know where to find the perpetrators,” police tweeted.

“The manhunt is underway at high speed,” police said. “Because of the unclear situation we ask all people in the city area to stay at home or to look for protection in any nearby building. The operation of public transportation service has been stopped.”

In a video making the rounds of social media, one man can be heard yelling obscenities at the suspect before telling him, “Put your gun down.”

The gunman yells back, “I am a German!'”

After the man taunting him calls him another name, the gunman tells him, “Shut your trap.” The gunman then fired more shots.

Another video that claimed to show part of the incident shows a man firing a shotgun at people outside a McDonald’s.
